Great rooms, clean, helpful reception. It is great to have a balcony and be able to sit outside in this beautiful Italian weather. the air conditioning is a little cool and location requires a 5 minute bus into Centro but otherwise it's a great experience. Breakfast outstanding.

A nice place to spend our last day in Italy. Tomorrow we are off through Austria and into Germany for ...
